The Government has just released the new Metropolitan Strategy with a new name “A Plan For Growing Sydney” and ultimately plans for more growth and includes mention of a second airport.
The Strategy sets out four overarching Goals:
- A competitive economy with world class services and transport
- A city of housing choice, with homes that meet our needs and lifestyles
- A great place to live with communities that are strong, healthy and well connected
- A sustainable and resilient city that protects the natural environment and has a balanced approach to the use of land and resources
There is a greater focus on Parramatta and Western Sydney in delivering a world class competitive economy through the Global Economic Corridor which is being extended to Parramatta, Norwest and Sydney Olympic Park. A new intense economic hub is proposed around Badgerys Creek and growth in Penrith, Liverpool and Campbelltown- Macarthur coming from improved transport connections to the rest of Sydney.
